"Hmm, space is the realm of gods, and you can actually get a space ring that is rare in the entire continent. By the way, why do you smoke so much meat? Do you like to eat this kind of food? Suwen asked, she picked up lime and bacon with bread and ate a lot, which seemed to be very appetizing.
"No, I like vegetarian food, I didn't like fish in the past, but now I like it, smoked meat, why do I bring so much smoked meat?" Li Yi felt that there seemed to be some memories that should not be forgotten, very important memories.
"Mani's favorite smoked meat, Chief, remember!" Isabella cried out in her heart, almost on the verge of saying it.
But in the end, Li Yi still didn't think about it at all, he smiled bitterly, took out a piece of paper, and had a premonition in his heart, the memory will always come back, now this self is probably going to disappear at that time, this kind, humble, like Su Wen, and love life self will be imprisoned again, I'm afraid there will never be a chance to come out again, before he dies, there must always be something left, just like a death message, maybe the original Li Yi will follow this prompt and release him, but this is just an extravagant hope.
"Don't forget Suwen." It was the first sentence he wrote.
I suddenly remembered that in the past, I often used conspiracies to achieve my goals, whether good or bad, "the impurity of the means will inevitably lead to the impurity of the end." This is the second sentence.
"Non-violence is the limit of humility." This is the third sentence.
My heart is full of inexplicable sorrow, it is a predicted death, I still have a lot of things to do, and I have to go away from the life I love, how unwilling!
"Is it that people who foresee their own death will have a lot of thoughts inexplicably? If you still have nostalgia for this world, will it be painful when you die? Li Yi's appearance became more and more sad, time was running out, he had to do something, in order not to leave regrets.
However, the great sorrow of life is that we know that time is running out, but we don't know what to do, watching the days go by day, and then walking towards that empty end, the terrible ending, the sad process, the death without the slightest meaning, the birth without the slightest meaning.
Sometimes the inexplicable and wonderful heart chills, like the sky under my feet, falling into the bottomless abyss, living is more like lingering, but the heart is like a mirror, clearly seeing the end, but it can't avoid its coming, there is no way out, but the left turn is a cliff, the right turn is also a cliff, and the front is hell.
Is it to die in struggle or to die without resistance, it is already known that it must die, and is there any point in struggling? Maybe struggling a little will alleviate the pain when you die?
Pain, all disappointment, loss, hesitation, confusion, sadness, a combination of physical hurt, pain and happiness, opposing words, words that sometimes can coexist, sometimes not. To live is to experience pain, so hate it, to be alive is to be happy, so like it, death is the end of eternity, and there is no stillness in pain and pleasure. Fear of death, because of fear of losing happiness, of losing the opportunity to be happy, of wanting to end one's life, because of pain, the torture of pain, the torture of the body, the torture of the heart, the torture of the heart more than the flesh.
What a fragile life man is! The fragile body, the fragile mind, if you are not careful, you will be hurt, and if you are injured, you will suffer.
But happiness seems real because of pain, and happiness without pain will only be taken for granted by people, diluted to the point of indifference, because there is life, old age, sickness, death, resentment, love and parting, five yin blazing, and unbelievable, so we cherish the so-called happiness, the so-called happiness, even if it is worthless in the eyes of others.
Li Yi said to Su Wen with a pale face: "I'm about to disappear, but I know that this is the result, but I can't change it, am I useless?" ”
"Don't think it's going to be fine." She grabbed Li Yi's hand, and although she said so, her tears still couldn't stop dripping.
Li Yi wrote on the paper: "A man who makes a woman sad is not a good man. ”
Tears are to be shed, things are also to be done, and when the old woman came back, she had already put on a respectful face, of course, it was aimed at Li Yi, it seemed that the city lord said something to her.
"The lord of the city agrees with you." She continued in that hoarse, broken porcelain voice.
This "you" is obviously talking about the singular, so Su Wen stayed here, and the old woman led Li Yi in.
The inside of the Alberta city-state is more like an empty city with nothing, gray walls, gray streets, and empty houses with no one looking through the windows. There was not a single ray of sunlight, not even the breath of life, it was like a ghost town.
"Why is it so quiet and gloomy here?" Li Yi asked with some trembling.
"Because this is the center of the world, where the World Tree grows, where everything originates and ends. Later, when the World Tree was destroyed by the gods, the world withered from here, and one day, the color of dead ash would cover the entire continent, the sea, and the sky, and where the sun was shining outside, beauty would fade, and dead ash would cover everything. ”
"Why do you want to live in this dead place?" Looking at the rickety old woman, Li Yi suddenly felt a wave of sympathy, he didn't see the sun all day long, what a uncomfortable thing it was!
"We have been the guardians of the World Tree for generations, how can we turn our backs on it when it prospers and enjoys its glory when it prospers? That is to be punished by the world. ”
In the center of the city-state is a square castle, with a square conical roof, which looks gray, and on the steps stands a black-robed woman with an outstanding demeanor, looking at Li Yi condescendingly, she is wearing a veil, and her two bright eyes seem to be the only light in this dark world, and she has a special temperament on her body, standing tall, it seems that she is the city lord Gloria.
"I received a letter from Edmund, Li Yi, are you a person you can trust?" Gloria's voice was not loud, but it was surprisingly gentle and gentle.
"Me? Trust? Li Yi didn't touch his head for a while, "Are you friends with Big Brother Edmund?" In that case, I can keep it a secret, though I don't know what you're going to tell me, or what to show me. ”
"Yes, Edmund said, to show you the truth that belongs to this world." Gloria turned and walked into the castle and motioned for Li Yi to follow.
The old woman remained at the door, watching them walk through the black hole gate, which also faded into the darkness.
The first feeling of entering the castle is the autumn-like yellow atmosphere, and the long corridor stretches underground at a slope, and I don't know what the end is.
"That, the box, what's in the box?" After a long silence, Li Yi couldn't help but ask.
"Be quiet, don't talk, just watch." There was a commanding tone in Gloria's gentle tone.
Li Yi immediately stopped talking, and only heard the footsteps of two people.
"You're not quite what Edmund said in his letter, but the box will be delivered." She asked suddenly, abruptly.
"I have amnesia from the past, and I can't remember it clearly." Li Yi replied truthfully.
"Yes." Gloria replied noncommittally, "Amnesia is not the most terrible, the most terrible thing is that some painful memories cannot be forgotten. ”
"That's it" Li Yi lowered his head, this woman really doesn't understand, and only she knows her pain.
The long road finally came to an end, the dampness and coldness of the underground were diffused all around, Li Yi saw a pool of turquoise clear spring, the green water was only a thin layer, the spring was filled with silt, but the only remaining bit of green liquor contained an extremely strong breath of life.
The breath of life, Li Yi has been exposed to this magical substance more than once, formless and substantial, but he can perceive it, just like seeing the fruits ripen in autumn and all things germinate in spring, the tension and freshness of life is the breath of life, the breath of foreign things growing.
On the edge of the spring grew a small tree, withered, a black jewel-like trunk covered with white lines, and a crescent-shaped leaf litter.
"Is it dead?" Li Yi suddenly felt great sadness, as if he had lost an extremely important person.
"Don't ask me, I don't know, but it's the only thing that can defeat the gods." Gloria stepped aside, where there was a stone altar on which several black-robed men were busy, with lots of glassware and strange liquids.
The box was opened, and inside was a wriggling mass of flesh! Abnormal pale red and blue-black blood vessels.
The mass of flesh kept bouncing, stretching out the flesh thorns and stabbing fiercely in all directions, with strong aggressiveness, but when a dark red liquid was poured into the small box, it immediately became honest and curled up in a ball, and many wrinkles appeared on the surface, and the color was pale.
"It's a strong acid that temporarily inhibits its action."
"Flesh and blood of gods, gods?" Li Yi stammered and asked, the scene was too weird, I really didn't know what to say.
"Of course not, if it is really the flesh and blood of the gods, it is impossible to be imprisoned, this is the body tissue of some kind of strange beast, which imprisons the will of a god, and the will of the gods came to the world when it was destroyed last time, and it was imprisoned in it by the ancient powers who don't know how to use it." Gloria said.
"Oh my God, then, what is the purpose of the will of this gods? Could it awaken the World Tree? ”
"How is this possible, didn't Edmund say it to you? We have to use the World Tree to dismantle the will of the gods, and find clues to break the code of destruction, although the chance is slim, but it is worth a try, and this is the end of what should be shown to you, and the favor owed to Edmund can be regarded as repaid, you go. ”
He hurried away.
To walk through the long road alone, it is not a pleasant thing for Li Yi now, and he is looking forward to leaving this gray place as soon as possible, what world tree, what gods, what destruction code, he doesn't care about it, these things are too far away, too terrifying, like a bottomless whirlpool, to pull him down, no return.
"Anyway, I used to be a very brave person, and how did he persevere when he came into contact with these things that were terrifying just by listening to them? What does he want? What makes him desperate to do something even if he gets dirty and imprisons the good side in his heart? Is there anything more important than living in peace, is there anything more important than living? For example, the World Tree, such as fighting the gods, such as calculating others in order to get more resources, just to protect yourself and the people around you? Li Yi gradually began to understand his past self, the self who regarded life and death as the same, regarded life as a burden, and built a hard and thick shell in his heart in order to survive in the cold world.
"I'm like this now, I can't protect anyone, do I want Su Wen to take care of me for the rest of my life?" He stood in the dark, his mind cleared little by little, and his eyes changed.
Recent events, past events, are rapidly unfolding in my mind like a movie, and lost memories are also recovered.
"Felder, I owe you five hundred red spirit crystals?" Li Yi squinted his eyes and looked at him.
Felder shrank his neck in fright, "This must not be!" ”
"When I lost my memory, you guys were really poor, you didn't have any opinions, let me follow that woman, do some boring things, and almost missed the meeting with Cassius and Paul, I'm really looking forward to it, what a big plan." Li Yi calculates the days, and if he sets off now, he will use the Tiger Shark-class pontoon to drive at full speed, and it will be half a day earlier.
Without further ado, he took out the pontoon and was about to open the hatch, when Isabella said behind him, "Chief, aren't you saying goodbye to Su Wen?" Just walked away? ”
"Any questions?" Li Yi didn't reply.
"You've regained your memory and become a heartless person! She's taken care of you for so many days, you! ”
"She almost killed me, and when she saw me lose my memory, she couldn't bear it, just like after abusing a cat to be disabled, she couldn't bear it, and it was as hypocritical as feeding the cat some milk, haha, the electric shock was to vent the anger in my heart, and taking care of me was to satisfy my own sympathy, and women are really creatures who live for desire, unreasonable!"
Su Wen was not far away, these words were heard word for word, she sat on the ground, howling and crying, such hurtful words, she would never be able to say it when she lost her memory, it seemed that he had regained his memory.
The tiger shark pontoon started, Li Yi sat in the cabin, opened a bottle of wine very rarely, drank half of the bottle, and wanted to suppress the irritability in his heart, but tears flowed out, "Strange, did I choke on wine?" He wiped it away quickly, his eyes a little messy.
"Phew, cold-blooded villain! Abandoned her, and shed some crocodile tears here. Isabella spitted.
"Ahem, boss, forget about these abnormal things, this is not designed in your blueprint, it can only be regarded as an accident, hey, let's be normal!" Alger tried to adjust the atmosphere, but to no avail.
Li Yi sat on the pontoon and hurriedly sailed in the direction of the Imperial Academy, he was going to the city-state of Pompeii and round with Cassius.
Although this is his purpose, there is always some sense of escape, as if something bad is chasing him behind him, making him feel uneasy.
Originally, life was simple and regular, he wandered around like a hunter, to catch prey to fill his stomach, but gradually contaminated with many complex relationships, the so-called bonds, while connecting people with each other, they also bound them, and sometimes they became obstacles, and their strength would be weakened if they were hindered.
"By the way, when will you get to the gold level? I'm still a green-level explorer, Felder, you've been stuck at this level for a few months, haven't you? Li Yi frowned and looked at him with scrutinizing eyes, "With your virtue, you are embarrassed to tell me that you owe you five hundred red spirit crystals, and it is estimated that you will not be able to upgrade to the gold level if you give you five hundred red spirit crystals."
